NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: 'The Real Housewives of New Jersey' star Teresa Giudice has recently revealed that she once had an interaction with 'America's Got Talent' judge Sofia Vergara and that it did not go well. The reality star recalled the unpleasant interaction and has made it clear she's not friendly with Sofia.

The Bravo star dedicated the latest episode of her podcast, 'Namaste B$tches', to shade the 'AGT' judge over their previous interactions. Teresa took a dig at Sofia and noted that she is "not a nice person." Teresa detailed in her podcast how the interaction unfolded, calling the 'AGT' star "the rudest woman I've ever met."

Why did Teresa Giudice call Sofia Vergara the 'rudest woman'?

Teresa recalled a 2017 encounter with her co-host, Melissa Pfeister, noting it happened while she and Sofia appeared on a talk show. Teresa claimed that Sofia lashed out at the reality star after refusing to take a photo with her at the request of someone in the 'Modern Family' actress' team. Teresa said, "Sofia Vergara's PR person and my PR person spoke together, and I guess the two of them said, 'Let's get a picture of Teresa and Sofia together.' The reality star made it clear that she didn't want a picture with her and she has never asked to take a picture with anybody. The reality star further explained, "When we went to go take a picture she was like, standing in front of me, like ok, that's not how you take a picture. She was the rudest woman I've ever met." Teresa then imitated the Columbian star's thick accent and recalled what she said to her PR person. Teresa revealed, "I saw her whole demeanor, and then I heard her say to her PR person, 'Why are you making me take a picture with that lady?'" However, the 'RHONJ' star replied to Sofia, "I was like, 'Excuse me? I did not want to take a picture with you! I never asked to take a picture with you.'" After that Sofia did not respond, and the ladies went their separate ways.

Teresa Giudice claims Sofia Vergara ignored her

Further in her podcast, Teresa recalled another interaction with Sofia. The reality star certainly ranted more about Sofia's shocking behavior. Teresa mentioned that she ran into Sofia last year at a restaurant during her brief appearance on 'Dancing With the Stars' but claimed the actress ignored her. Teresa ranted about her previous interaction as she recalled the second encounter, "I was like, how rude. You're so not a humble person." The reality star further continued in her rant, "You forgot where you came from. It's not like she started out like being on the top. She forgot where she came from. She's so not a down-to-earth person." Teresa made it clear on her podcast that she is not a fan of Sofia.
